THE IRISH MISSION.
Persco and Gualdi Halt at Paris-The vacil-
lation of the Pontiff.


lation of the Pontiff.
Special to the INDIANAPOLIS journal
LONDON, July Mgr. Persico and his fellow
commissioner. Mgr. Gualdi, in Paris. and
will remain there. in obedience to telegraphic
instructions from the Pope, until further
directed. The inexpIicable wavering of his
Holiness on the matter of the Irish mission has
induced the belief here that in its efforts to
ciliate the British government, and at the same
time retain its hold upon the Irish Catholics,
the Vatican is in danger of falling between two
stools and that the Pope seeing this, is endeav-
orine to find some means of escape from his
predicament Mgr. Persico is represented as
hopeful of the success of his mission, whatever
may be its actual character, and anxious to pro-
ceed to Ireland at once, but 1t is not apparent
that he has made any effort to induce the
Vatican to hasten its decision IN favor of his i'm
mediate departure from Paris. He n very
learned man. An exceptionally thorough hngust
and finished diplomatisu. His knowledge of
the English language is perfect and he is in
every way capable of achieving success in any
mission with which nc may be intrusted.

NEW York, July 2.-The World says: "The
fact of Robert CARROTS presence in the city on
Thursday night was used yesterday as an argu-
ment in support of the closing of the Balti-

deals. While here he had a conference
with the Ives people. and yesterday his leuten-

THE IRISH LAND BILL.
Its Good and Bad Points Under DIscussio
in the House of Lords.


It's Good and Bad Points Under Discussion n
in the House of Lords.
LONDON, July LIN the House of Lords, this
evening, in the report stage of the Irish land
bill, the Earl of Duuraven said there were three
hundred amendments waiting, which might al
most recast the bill. many provisions of which
derogated from the main object of the measure
Earl Spencer declared the bill would fail to
bring about settlement of the Irish question,
and was not worth considering, it would not
relieve the tenants. He did not think the gov
ernment understood some of the clauses because
in some cases the clauses would injure the ten
ants and in others would iniure the landlords.
Tenants might be ordered to pay arrears in
small installments, but payment of rent was not
provided for, therefore the tenants might con-
tinue paying installments and allow the rent to
accumulate. Directly the bill was passed the
courts would be crowded with applicants whose
cases could not be settled for years.
Lord Ashbourne. Lord Chancellor of Ireland
said that after the bill had passed necessary
evictions would not be open to harsh criticism.
The bankruptcy claims of the bill were fair and
reasonable.
Baron Hedschell said the clauses dealing with
evictions, in which I over is given leasers to &c
to court. were the only clauses worth anything
Lord Salisbury said it was because the Liber-
ais tried to apply an impossible system 20 the
relations between landlord and tenant that the
government was obliged to introduce the pres
eut bill. 1t was a pity the Liberals had not
foreseen these evils, that the government
would not have had to undertake an impossible
task in Introducing sanity into land policy
which absolutely insane Cheers He did
not regard the bill final measure, but be-
lieved it would be element in restoring peace
and good will
Earl Kimberly asserted that the bill Of 1881
violated the rights Of contract less than the
present bill, which broke the contracts of I5O :
900 1easers
The report on the bill was agreed upon, and
the third reading of the measure was fixed for
July 4.

The March Of Trousers

Trousers came into use for general wear
with the French revolution. The gentleman,
the supporter of royalty and sound constitu-
tional principles, wore breeches. Napoleon's
army was the first that wore trousers, and
trousers made progress in general adoption
step by step with the march of the French
army. People thought that the manner in
which great conquering nation clad its legs
est against trousers, but finally she yielded,
and her armies marched to Waterloo wearing
the universal leg tunnels. Our grandfathers
generally fell in with the ways of the world,
though Federalists here and there would not
yield
We have a few odd trousers in mems and
youths sizes. They are light weights and in
colors (the trousers not the men and youths.)
They are just the thing to go with thin coat
and vest, and. if you put them all on at the
same time, sure to go together. Step in
and be trousered before your size in this odd
lot is taken by the other fellow.

ers of Detective Hulligan are in Cleveland They
arrived at 615 o'clock this morning. and are now
in the county Jail under a strong guard and in
heavy chains. The Detroit boat was due at $50
o'clock, but long before that hour people began
to assemble at the docks along the river. A
heavy fog hung over the lake. and anxious eye
looked toward the north for two hours before the
great smoke-stacks of the vessel appeared. Chief

presently a crowd of people on the
decks Slowly the ship came sailing in, and at

police had hard work in keeping the
the desperate criminals, and the police
were compelled to flourish their clubs
and scream at the top of their voices in order to
keep passage clear from the boat to the patrol
wagon. Captain Hoehn was the first man to
cross the gang-plank Detective Lohrer came
next. Hoehn. learning that everything was
ready, boarded the boat again, and minute
later heavy detail of detectives came out of
the boat and with them came the fur robbers.
The prisoners were chained together and had
their hands fastened with steel bands. Their
coats were thrown over their shoulders, and as
they hobbleo into the first patrol wagon cheer
broke forth from the two thousand people on
and away went the two wagons, loaded down
with officers in blue coats and detectives armed
to the teeth.

United States If this is to be done it
must be done by Great Britain and
Canada, whose interests are more di-
rectly involved. Should the cable to
Australia be laid by the two Powers,
cable from Honolulu to Yokohama and
Hongkong might be laid by the British
to secure the advantages enumerated
above It would, of cour Sc, on many
grounds be preferable that the cable
should be laid direct from Vancouver to
Hongkong, stopping at Honolulu and
Yokohama, and if the Imperial and Do
minion authorities are not debarred
from supporting the project by financial
exigencies they should need little urging
to induce them to lend the enterprise
their support. The Australian Colonies
would probably be willing to vote subsi-
dies to a cable that would place them
in direct communication with Canada
and the United States. Now that serious
attention has been directed to the ques-
ton it is to be hoped that the completion
of the Geographic girdle round the earth
will be effected within measurable dis
lance of time, to the end that commerce
